Ultrasound Practitioner Master's Degree Curriculum and Questionnaire Response by the SDMS Membership

Following publication of the ultrasound practitioner (UP) master's degree educational proposal in August 1999, the UP Commission published a questionnaire to obtain feedback from SDMS membership to the UP concept. This article contains the results of that data collection. Additionally, as progress has been made in the development of UP programs around the country, refinement of the curriculum, as originally proposed, has begun. This article contains a breakdown of required didactic and clinical education for the midlevel provider in diagnostic ultrasound.
